Anting Threaded Flat Back North Star

The backing sits flush enough that I forget it's there, which is exactly what I wanted for my conch. The 16g post slid in smoothly and the star catches light nicely.

The 6mm top is the perfect size for my conch—not too bulky, and the star catches light in a way that's subtle but noticeable. I picked the 18g post and it slid in smoothly with no irritation after the first week. It's a simple piece, but it's exactly what I wanted for everyday wear.

I was nervous about swapping my conch jewelry, but the 6mm flat back is so much more comfortable than the screw-on I had before. The star sits perfectly flush and hasn’t snagged on my hair once in the two weeks I’ve worn it. Exactly the right size for my cartilage.
